A/N: sorry I've been so busy with school and stuff I haven't had a chance to do anything. Well enjoy and review!

Nick's POV

After sitting in my room for about an hour, I needed to get out and do something productive. I also was single and needed sun. I called up Oliver and Gabe. I told the both of them lets go out to the beach and have some fun. I felt like I haven't seen them in a while.

So I was getting ready and soon I was out the door seeing Joe waiting for me by his car. Finally he got his license so now we don't have to take the bus anymore. Even though the beach was literally five minutes away, we just wanted to drive there. Make things easier.

And by the time we were all there, we all went surfing. I so need this.

Miley's POV

I felt so bad for Nick, even though I knew he didn't care about me. But still he had to deal with that thing yelling in his house and making him look bad. I can't wait to see what happens at school on Monday. So all of girls were talking about the usually things, boy, clothes, and what were the latest styles. But all of a sudden Demi let out a huge sigh and so did Lily. So I had to ask, "What's wrong?"

They both said at the same time "Boys!"

"So what about them?" that's all I could think of since I wasn't crushing on anyone. Demi started, "Well, it's kind of obvious, I like Joe. A lot. He's always on mind, but I don't know how he feels about me because he goofs around a lot. And sometimes I don't know if he means some of the things or if he was just kidding."

The Lily went at it, "Girl I know how you feel. I like Oliver. And we are always hanging around and skating and stuff. But I don't know if he feels the same way."

Well, I hope Mandy has a solution. I mean she is the only one with a boyfriend.

Then Mandy finally had some words of advise, "Well then tomorrow after we go shopping and before we go to the usual Saturday night party. We are going to have a make over. And show the boys what we really mean to them. But for now, let's walk to the beach and get a tan because Gabe just texted me and the boys are there. And a new single hottie is there too." I knew the last lines were for me just because of what happened in junior drama. Once again, thank you Ms. Cocoa.

I didn't realize how close the beach was to my house until we started walking with out beach bags. We all made sure we had sunscreen, sun glasses, and towels. But to be honest, I don't know what I'm going to do. Because Nick saw me with food on me just yesterday and Joe doesn't stop reminding me. I hope I get to push Joe right into the water just cause that's what I want to do. Well I guess the girls had a usual spot because they knew exactly where to go and they knew that the bags next to us were the boys. I suddenly got butterflies. Yikes.

I was feeling very self conscious now, but I needed a tan if I wanted to not look like white Tennessee folks. I miss it there so much.

As I finally lied down and started drifting into la la land, I felt something crawling on my back. I screamed and jumped up ten feet into the air to find out it was just Joe. "You Loser," was all I could say. I chased after him and pushed him right into the water. Yes! Revenge is so sweet.

"Miley Stewart, you better watch your back."

"Okay Joe, whatever you say."

"No Miley really, watch your back." Then I was in the water.

I didn't even know there was someone even behind me. I got up from the wave passing by me and it was the person I didn't want to see. I was freaking out. Why was I freaking out? He doesn't like me. I know for a fact. He's into girls like Selena. Or was he? As I got out of the water and walked past them all I did was glare and hear Joe say, "Nick that was great, but now you better watch out." I stuck my tongue out and went back to the girls who were gossiping.

"What did I miss now? Is someone's bathing suit top not matching their bottom?"

Mandy sat me down and pulled out so fruit that came out of my refrigerator, "Girl, Nick so has a thing for you but just wont admit it"

"No he doesn't Mandy, what are you talking about?"

"Miley, I say this because we are friends, he likes you that look in his eyes. I know, trust me."

"Okay Mandy, whatever you say. Even though Joe planned it" Then Demi's head popped up faster than an ostrich's. And all of us were laughing at her. This Friday was the beginning of a great weekend.

Nick's POV

"Joe, I'm not the one who is gunna get killed by Miley, that's all you. I mean you came up with the plan."

"Nick, you know you would do the same thing for me if that was Demi, I mean were-"

"You like Demi? Why don't you ask her out, you've know her forever."

"Nick, its not that easy, I love hanging out with her but I don't know if she feels the same."

"Trust me Joe. She does. You should ask her out at the party tomorrow at Luther's house." Then I hear Oliver scream no.

"Dude, you can't take my plan. I was going to take a chance with Lily."

"Oliver, I thought you already did that last week when you two went skateboarding at the skate park."

"You loser, Nick you know I chickened out."

By the time we finished that conversation we were at the girls and they were all smiles until Miley saw me and her face dropped. Why does she not like me? I'm going to figure out why. Even if that means alone time. Miley, Demi, and Lily got up and when to the water. And we all know Gabe was so goo-goo eyed over Mandy that he had to kiss her everywhere. Its like were a pride of lions all paired together. Except for me and Miley.

"Hey, Mandy, why does Miley hate me?" that's all I could blurt out because it was bothering me really bad.

"Nick you idiot, why else would she not consider being friends with you. She always constantly tortured by Selena and she knows you two had a thing. I'm pretty sure she has a right to keep her distance. Why do you care?"

"Well I'm just puzzled about it that's all. Every girl is always flirting with me and she doesn't. All I want to do it to get to know her."

"Cocky much," Mandy started, "Selena has definitely changed you. And we all live relatively close to each other so if you wanted to get to know her, start now."

"Fine, Mandy, I will." All the boys looked shocked at me. Even Joe, my own brother, who knows me the best, was shocked.
